Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
1 pound fresh crab meat
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: a pinch of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Use a hand mixer or a sturdy whisk to blend until smooth and creamy.
Add in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and Old Bay seasoning. Mix well to ensure all the flavors are evenly distributed.
Gently fold in the crab meat, making sure not to break up the chunks too much, as you want a nice texture in your dip.
Stir in the green onions and parsley, reserving a small amount of each for garnish.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper if desired. Remember how my abuela taught me: trust your senses and add what feels right!
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give it a final stir, sprinkle with reserved green onions and parsley, and enjoy the fruits of your creative culinary endeavor.
